Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 medium head green cabbage
- 2 tablespoons white vinegar
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 3 cloves garlic
- 1 inch piece ginger
- 0.5 teaspoons red chili flakes
- 1 teaspoon sugar
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 2 stalks green onions
Instructions
Remove any damaged outer leaves from the green cabbage. Cut the cabbage into thin slices or shreds and set aside.
Peel and finely mince the garlic and ginger. Finely chop the green onions and set them aside for garnish.
Heat a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add the vegetable oil and swirl to coat the pan.
Once the oil is hot, add the minced garlic and ginger. Stir-fry for 30 seconds until fragrant, being careful not to burn them.
Add the shredded green cabbage to the skillet. Stir-fry for 2-3 minutes, tossing frequently, until the cabbage begins to soften.
In a small bowl, mix the white vinegar, soy sauce, sugar, and salt. Pour this mixture over the cabbage.
Sprinkle the red chili flakes into the pan and continue to stir-fry the cabbage for another 2-3 minutes until it is tender but still slightly crisp.
Taste and adjust the seasoning if needed. Remove from heat and transfer the cooked cabbage to a serving dish.
Garnish with the chopped green onions and serve immediately as a side dish or light main course.
